There is a need to ascertian ways and means whereby improvements may be initiated in present and future educational programs for the Native people of Alaska. The present situation indicates that because of the dropout rate from secondary schools and the low academic success of those in college, educators in Alaska have failed to cope with the problems of linguistics and culture of the Alaskan Native. Regional high schools which meet the needs of the rural people of Alaska seem to be an answer...

In this Alaska Native study, cultural "insiders" analyzed problems associated with increased alcohol availability, factors which have reduced alcohol-related problems, and ideas for improving treatment in an Inuit community. Participants described frequent bingeing, blackouts, family violence, suicide, loss of child custody, and feelings of intergenerational grief. Helpful existing treatment approaches include alcohol ordinances, inpatient treatment programs, twelve-step groups, and...

The Inupiaq of Alaska's North Slope are the first Inupiaq to have achieved self-government. The greatest significance of home rule is that it enables the Inupiaq to regain control of their children's education. The North Slope Borough schools must implement a bilingual and bicultural program that teaches children in their Inupiat language, with English as the secondary language. To attain this goal, teachers are needed who are bilingual and bicultural, knowledgeable in Inupiat culture and...

Findings of this review of management methods used by the BIA revealed, for example, that the BIA should develop a management information system to assist the program manager with such tasks as assessing students' educational needs,...

Young people's voices are frequently overlooked in discussions about education development and policy. This article draws on an ongoing participatory action research project (2011-2014) in Nunavik on student resilience and school perseverance. It examines ethical issues that have arisen during the research process, and highlights the strengths and limitations of tools and technology used to engage students and make their voices heard.

An analysis was done of 1990 Census data on race and Hispanic origin. Comparison of the 1990 data with Census figures from 1960, 1970, and 1980 showed that the nation continued to increase in racial and Hispanic origin diversity during the 1980s. Boosted by a high level of immigration, the Asian American population more than doubled (up nearly 108 percent) from 1980 to 1990. The Hispanic origin population increased by 53 percent from 1980 to 1990, and was also influenced by high rates of...

If the Saskatchewan Roughriders were expecting to cruise past the Montreal Alouettes on the weekend they certainly got a wake-up call in their come-from-behind 24-21 victory in the dying seconds. The challenger this week is the Edmonton Eskimos who, at 1-and-6, might appear to be easy beats but their showing against the Toronto Argonauts last weekend might cause Rider Nation a few heart palpitations before the full four quarters are complete. Leader-Post sports editor Rob Vanstone and...

In Fall 1971, the U.S. Bureau of Indian Affairs' (BIA) Bethel Agency implemented an experimental Yupik bilingual program into the primary grades of 3 lower Kuskokwim village day schools. Simultaneously the Alaska State-Operated School System (ASOSS) introduced Yupik bilingual programming in a kindergarten classroom at Bethel Elementary School. Both agencies shared certain program components (mainly in the areas of staff and materials development), and many of the concepts generated by the BIA...

Evaluation objectives were to assess the quality of the Bethel Alaska Regional Library/Media Center as an exemplary operation (the Center was established by the Bureau of Indian Affairs' Bethel Agency in 1971 to serve federally operated schools in Southwest Alaska) and to measure the impact of the Center's services on its Eskimo elementary student users. The sample selected for most of the data-gathering consisted of 479 students and 36 teachers from 12 schools (identified as high or low use...
